Re: Best way to create blog for company web site with Orgmode

[Rainer Hansen <rainer.hansen@gmx.net>]

Sometimes I should read more carefully what I write. I want to use a
static web site generator! So Wordpress is no option for me.

Sorry for the confusion.

Of course I could use Bootstrap with an Org-based static site
generator. However, I my thinking is that I need to do a lot of
customizations to use it as a blogging engine. Perhaps I am wrong. I
would be happy if someone on the mailing-list has done it and can show
that it is quite straight forward to do.

Yes, easy is relative. What I mean is that I can set it up in less than
4 hours through configuration. I want to be able to reuse the visual
theme implemented in CSS for the rest of the web site in the time limit
mentioned before.

Could you please provide some links? I am especially interested in
tutorials on setting them up.
